Tho correspondence between curve X and' the log.1vas not good For the 1ov1:lar par t of the curve, and the observations"were repeated with an addition- a l s a t a t r i gh t angles, The curves are shown, and marked Y and Z respectively, It w i l l .be noted t h a t .curve Y which was observed with almost the same electrode posi t ions as curve X pese~nbles i t very close- ly , but curve Z, observed trvit l i the l i n e of e1oc'l;rodes a t r i g h t aliglea t o tha t used f o r X and Y, i s qui te d i f f e r en t , m d r e f l e c t s clo'sely the conditions found i n the bore, S t a t i on Nor 19 was near cross roads, with 5"ainage and supsly canals, power and telephone l i n e s and wire fenceb, Sofile of tbfoe ma,y have caused the difPereiic8 batweon the tv10 se t s of observations, a s boring and other eviddnce shosfi t h a t t h e various beds a re very clos'e -Lo horizontal ,

Bore No, 247 was put down nea r . s t a t i o n Ho.29 t o inves t iga te a.phenominally large bulge t o a very high r e s i s t i v i t y i n t h a t curve, This bulge i s evident i n the curves from s t a t i o n No,28, north t o s t a t i o n No-27, The bore log d i d izot explain f u l l y the i1eason f o r tlze extremely la rge , r e s i s t i v i t i e s observed, It is ulidarstood t h a t tho sand encountered between 11 f e e t and 17 f e e t during boring was dry and t h i s would have an extremely high r e s i s t i v i t y . Its thickness i s small. however, and would not be expected t o causc t'ne bulge where it occurrol. Available' empirical data have ilot ass i s ted great ly i n exL)lainiiig t h i s e f f ec t , although i t i s lrnown t h a t i n see-bions with extreiil~ rcsisLiv- i t i e s and t h i n layers , the usual solutioii of -bhrcc layer curves i s not possible,

The curve f o r s t a t i o n No, 30, does not show a bulge similar t o t h a t i n the curve f o r s t a t i o l i No.29, HOL-lever, soiile sand could bc dxyected a t t h i s placc.

S ta t ion No,31 vi:ras tlic farthe:, t north and -Lhe curve is a vcry smooth one v?t.hhout bulges. It indicates ail absents of s a i d d r i f t s .

Two short east-west l i ne s of s t a t i o n s were observed, Ono l i n c s t a r t e d at bore No,195 ( ~ t ~ t i o n ~ 0 ~ 3 2 ) and hem again the curve r e f l e c t s the conditions shown by the bore. S ta t ions viere observed a t half mile intervals west f o r tlwce miles, The l a s t s t a t i on , No.37, appears t o be on a place f r e e of sand d r i f t s , About two rrnriles north, another l i n e of throe s t a t i o n s was observed,

From a study of the curves, it ap:.cars t h a t sand drif'ts can usually be detected, although the thic-messes of the d r i f t s , t h e i r number and depths, a re not alvrays so readi ly sho~:~n. Tho abstlncc of sand 1s shown very clcarly. It i s unfortunate t h a t thc presence of a w r y t h i n U y e r of .iriipem~eable material, which l t i ~ u l d be cnough t o prevent surface water '.reaching a d p i f t , probably could not bc dcduced from the curves. -

It is considered t h a t the r e s i s t i v i t y method i s cui tabla f o r quick reconnaissance work, whereby the prosence of sand can ba shown, Boring. would be necessary t o check the gaophysical uorl; a t in loruals , a l so f o r the iilensuroiilent of ground water lcvols , but tho number of bores could be reduced considel~ably and others placed norc advantageously by uw of the xethod.

D f scuosion of Results.

The curvea from' observations 5n t h i s m c a , are p lo t t ed on logarithmic ~ c a l e ~ an& arc shown on p l a t e 4.

Thc curves show the smle form throughout and are character- ized by very high r e s i s t i v i t y , &n some ]?laces up t o 500,000 ohm cm* f o r the surface sands, then a l t e r i n g t o low values, i n some i3laces a s low a s 600 ohm crn. f o r t h e most conductive layers. The curves then trend towards higher values with increase of depth, a s the moderately roc i s t ive underlying mater ia l adds i t s effect .

Generalised logs of the t h ree bores con1pJeted a t the time of viriting ore shown on p l a t e 4. The curve f o r s t a t i o n 7/600 9. i s p lo t ted on l i neo r s ca l e s beside the log of bore No. 1. t

, , , , In most o f the curves, t h s l ayer of sand on the curface is

c lea r ly shourn, and can b e measured by using the type curves. LjIpwise, the most conductive layer . s h ~ s s . up and the depth can be dctermin~d.

No. 1 bore was put down on stationd:7/600 S. Frgn inspect ion of the curve and by f i t t i n g type curves, about 14 f e e t of sand was expected. Below t h i s , l e s s permcable m ~ . t e r i a l s were expected t o over#- l i e the inoct conductive layer a t 80 feet . Thc 'bore shovfed the expect- ed thickness of sand9 but t h e most conductive layer comes i n a sec t ion loggcd as having a varying permeability and occupzing from 44 f e e t t o 100 feet.
